Compare to last time (75 burpee step ups in 22:32), I am mostly satified with my effort. Kept moving fairly well through the burpees, slowed down a lot through the pullups. My grip was failing.

It sucked when my palm ripped and bled on pullup 98.

It was awesome when, after the workout, I realised I was on the leaderboard for Jerk! Also awesome, I completed 3 pullups with the purple band in my warmup!

Jesse wore Heather's tank top, green, for St Patrick's Day. It was difficult to pay attention to what he was saying, funny shirt.

Tuesday March 9th

Skills:
Deadlift 3-3-3
I actually ended up doing 3-3-3-3-3-3, not realizing where to start the progression since I had never gone for a max on this lift before. I did a set of 5 with wooden plates on the 45lb bar, then a set of 5 at 65, then 85, 95, 105, 115, 125 & finally, 135lb.
WOD:
21-15-9
Double unders
Burpees
11:03
Got the 21 double unders in round one, but these were extremely broken up and I was nearly done in in the first round. Went to singles for rounds 15 (45 singles) and 9 (27 singles). Burpees were on my knees, and I "wormed" up in most of them. I think I got "ROM" (range of movement) noted next to my time on the whiteboard.
I finished way behind the group, and got a lot of cheers from the team when I got through it :)

Heather sort of congratulated me for being done my Foundations, and instead of be happy and feeling accomplished, I complained that I finished last everytime. I was a bad sport, and I feel awful that I didn't appreciate what Heather was saying.

Grrrr, instead of being happy about something, I chose to look at the most (the only?) negative thing. I chose to focus on the negative. I had felt great earlier on, had fun and tried really hard, but I finished last in time, and that's all I took away from class. That just won't do. Heather and the group in class were wonderful, and I didn't just let them be wonderful. I feel like I tarnished the final foundations class for myself, instead of having pride in what I'd completed.

The only way to get better is to not quit and to try harder when I want to quit.
Cultivate grace. Stop my ego from smashing me.
